Horsetail is a diuretic and astringent that has been used to help control incontinence
including bed wetting - it both strengthens the bladder and eliminates water.
It is a good "spring cleaning" detoxification herb.
There is evidence that horsetail builds the immune and nervous systems. It is
recommended for urinary tract infections. Horsetail contains a very high amount
of silicon (and high calcium) in a bioavailable form. This makes it a very popular
in formulas to build and provide elasticity to bones,
hair, skin, nails and teeth.
Fractured bones heal much faster when horsetail is taken. It is an interesting
connection that it often has unusually high levels of gold and is used in Europe
as a treatment for arthritis.
Although there is some concern that mature plants have over-stimulated grazing
animals, the young shoots were used as a vegetable by North American Indians.
It is often listed as an edible wild plant.
There is no record of harm to humans.
